    Nachos & potato patty
    Lou M.

    I'm surprised this place isn't more popular. We had delicious and healthy food. The service was on point and it was nice to have the option to eat al fresco on a beautiful day.

    Kimchi burger
    Crystal M.

    We ate here every night we were in Banff! Sure, there's lots of options, but this was where I felt the most comfortable eating, vegan options and knowing that my food would not be crossed contaminated. Service was excellent! Staff were so friendly impatient with us even when they were so busy most nights. We were creative and got something different to try each night and we liked everything. Something else we like more than others and would get over and over again and that includes the mushroom ravioli, cheesy gnocchi, the purple haze smoothie and kimchi burger. And I believe my husband really enjoyed his legume burger and I enjoyed my falafel salad however I substituted my falafel's for tofu. Ambience is great not too loud indoor and outdoor seating. Good for individuals or large groups.

    This is an EXCELLENT fine-dining vegan eatery. This was such a delicious treat and experience to have in Banff. We went one night for dinner and another night we came back for dessert. As a big ravioli enthusiast, I was amazed by the delicious and creative approach to the vegan ravioli, loved the strawberry!! And my husband really enjoyed the ramen. We got vegan ice cream one night and the chocolate raspberry cup another night, highly recommend! Service was smooth and quick, the staff are friendly and kind. What a view to eat outside and be surrounded by the mountains.

    Shoyu ramen
    Julia L.

    This was a flavorful, somewhat fusion ramen. The broth was definitely good, but not quite a traditional Japanese shoyu taste if that's what you're expecting. But it works really well! The weather was also amazing and sitting outside in front of the mountains... that experience is hard to top.

    This was the only fully vegetarian spot we found in Banff--though not entirely vegan, as they serve eggs and dairy, most dishes can be made vegan. The host mentioned it could be hard to get a table in the evening, but we decided to try our luck. Even though the place was almost full, we didn't have to wait at all. The staff was incredibly friendly and walked us through all the specials. We ordered the Watermelon Sugar High and the Green Tea Gin and Tonic--both were excellent. For food, we tried the ramen, which was a bit underwhelming, and the wild mushroom ravioli, which was much better. Overall, I'd recommend this place for the wide variety of vegetarian and vegan options and the warm, accommodating service, though the food itself was more on the average side.

    World famous nachos
    Navdha V.

    Service: amazing Ambiance: casual and cool Food: 1) world famous Nachos: it was ok 2) kimchi burger: no kimchi flavors - patty was hard and tasted more like potato, sweet chili dressing and side of fries were the best part 3) tempura broccoli: it came highly recommended by our waitress but it was essentially broccoli drenched in chickpea flour with too much carom seeds. The final product was very drying and oily. I would skip this place for the above items, maybe something else might be good, but I haven't tried them.

    Omelette and potatoes. The potatoes were awesome, the omelette really good despite being meatless.

    I'm pretty much a carnivore, so I was skeptical about having brunch here, but it turned out well. Service was good, the outside patio was a great place to eat, and most importantly the food was yummy! I had an omelette with cheese and mushrooms, which was good, but the best part was the potatoes - each cube was slightly crunchy on the outside and melty on the inside.

    Came here for cocktails and olives. Love the big green olives, served warm - has pits. The menu no longer had the one I wanted but once I mentioned this to the bartender he said he could make it as they have the old recipes! - Kyoto Sunrise 12/10 best cocktail in town. Anti-everything - 8/10 Gone south - 10/10, was really surprised how much I liked this one too. In the weeds - me 6/10, boyfriend 9/10 wayyy to strong flavor for me but i admit very unique taste.

    Falafel salad
    Bonnie I.

    Half restaurant half bar? Either way, the service was very friendly & the food was good. It's all vegetarian or vegan but there are so many options. The portions were also very generous. I had the kimchi burger & it was very flavorful, which I think mostly comes from all the sauces they have to use. My friend & I shared the poutine & it had a little twist to it.

    Busy Skijoring weekend in Banff. The folks couldn't have been more pleasant under the conditions. The ambiance is groove and the food to match.

    Menu - 6/9/24
    Hee Y.

    We arrived around 8pm for dinner on June 9th. While most of the staff were friendly, there was one waitress (wearing all black, backwards cap & pigtails, & a gruff voice) who made it very unpleasant for us. I thought she might be playing real life diner dash because she performed drive-by service (asking us and other tables "Is the food good?" While walking fast and we barely had time to answer). When we mentioned to her that the mushroom ravioli was undercooked and pointed out the white hard bit of pasta that hadn't been cooked, she said "I'll see what I can do" and stepped inside for half a second before coming back to our table and saying, "No, nothing I can do sooorrry." It made us question whether she was wanted to create the illusion that she was doing something about it. After that, without even telling us, she stopped serving us and another waiter began to serve us. It was so bizarre. The food itself was OK. We wanted to support a vegan/ vegetarian restaurant but the experience left a bad taste in our mouth.

    Vegan food:)'mmmmm yum

    Lovely place! Enjoyed tasty vegan menu items sitting outside under and umbrella whilst people watching. Staff is super cool!!!!!!! Kimchi vegan burger is dynamite. Vegan poutine was nice. Many vegan options- all are good! MUST GO HERE!

    Beautiful brunch with exceptional service!…read more We had such a wonderful brunch at Juniper Bistro, but what really made our experience special was our server, Hena. Hena was honestly one of the most proactive and professional servers I've ever experienced. There was a mistake with one of our orders, and rather than simply letting it go, she noticed the issue and went out of her way to help us correct it. She was incredibly thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely considerate throughout our entire meal. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. We enjoyed the Benny Trio: Jon ordered smoked salmon, mushroom and eggplant. I ordered the short rib, carrots and mushroom. Both orders came with crispy roasted potatoes! Everything was generous, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. And then there is the view! Sitting outside with the mountains surrounding us made the whole experience feel extra special. Hena even offered to our photo for us while we celebrated the beautiful day together. Juniper Bistro is definitely more than just a place to grab brunch. Great food + spectacular scenery + truly exceptional service. A huge thank-you to Hena for making our brunch so memorable. She is a gem and a real asset to Juniper Bistro! Highly recommend!

Came here on a Thursday with a reservation - surprisingly, restaurant was sort of dead; about half the tables were empty and remained empty throughout the night. I won't go through a dissection of each dish, but I will just say, on paper, the flavors sound interesting and unique. However, execution is lacking. Dishes are all single notes that don't maintain interest. Above all else, our server Sidd was surprisingly inattentive. Initially, he seemed to be helpful with his service and input, but moments later, his attention seemed to reach a cliff. He seemed far more interested in hanging out by the pass and talking to coworkers than ensuring tables are tended to and water was filled in the fairly-empty restaurant. Stick to downtown Banff for some truly phenomenal or inspiring food.

    Wonderful dinner at LUPO…read more We had such a lovely dinner at LUPO Italian Ristorante & Patio in Banff! From the beautiful presentation to the creative flavors, everything felt thoughtful and special. We tried several dishes family style, including: 1. beautifully prepared halibut with tuscan kale, braised fennel, macadamia nuts 2. A delicious roasted zucchini with herb crema, macadamia nuts, reggiano, mint 3. The Tuscan Caesar salad was anything but ordinary -- loaded with Parmesan dressing, anchovy, crispy garlic bread crumbs, and lots of flavor. 4. We finished with a lemon sorbet and tiramisu, which was the perfect ending. The food was fresh, beautifully plated, and surprisingly creative. I especially loved that the dishes weren't just heavy Italian food -- there were lots of vegetables, bright flavors, and interesting textures. The patio was a wonderful place to sit, and the whole experience felt relaxed but upscale. Great food, beautiful setting, and excellent service. We're spending a week in Banff, and this was definitely one of those meals that made the trip more memorable. Highly recommend LUPO if you're looking for a special meal in Banff!

    Great happy hour and delicious pasta and drinks!…read more We got the happy hour Caesar salad, happy hour creste rigate, and regular sized spicy rigatoni.

Admittedly, I'm not much of a drinker but I'll have some once in a while and Bear Street seems to have a pretty good selection. I tried a Vietnamese Coffee Stout which I enjoyed. I'm definitely more of an eater than I am a drinker and the eats at Bear Street Tavern are excellent. My party got 2 pizzas and a salad and we enjoyed it all. To start we got the Tavern Bowl. It's a bunch of different vegetables with a Tahini Miso Dressing and kimchi on top. All the different textures and flavors worked really well together and the salad served as a nice break between bites of pizza. The Wheeler Hut pizza has mushrooms, ricotta, truffle oil, pesto, and mozzarella. If you're a fan of truffle flavor you'll enjoy this pizza. As soon as it was brought out I could already smell the truffle. The Mediterranean has olives, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, red onions, chili flakes, spinach, mozzarella, and balsamic glaze. A little busier than the Wheeler Hut, but it was equally delicious. I'm not sure which pizza I liked more. Both pizzas had a fantastic crust with some char. Substantial enough to stand up to the toppings but still a little doughy for a nice chew. The char gives a nice crunch as well. Service is quick and friendly and the prices are fair, especially in a tourist area. I definitely recommend Bear Street Tavern.
